Why Scotland's vote has Brussels spooked

Whatever the outcome of Scotland's referendum on independence, the political ramifications for the UK and EU will be severe.

As Scotland votes on independence from the UK today, it would be courageous to speculate on the result. Recent opinion polls have been so tight that the referendum could go either way. But whatever the Scots decide, the implications will be severe -- not just for the (still) UK but also for the EU as well.
